Guide to Freelance Writing

Freelance writing help me get a start in my online business. Although that was more than 3 years ago, my freelance gigs helped me quit my full time job and launch my Internet marketing business as well. Freelance writing is definitely a good way to earn some stable money.

Although there a really good freelance writing available, in this article let me give you and idea of what you can do:

 

 

 

1. Gost write for other people’s books and ebooks

 

 

2. Write articles for website / blog owners

 

 

3. Become a regular colun writer for offline / online media in various topics

 

 

4. Become a paid blogger using get paid to blog like PayPerPost

 

 

5. Become an editor / proofreader and help brush up someone else’s work

 

 

6. Become a web copywriter and charge for every web copy written

 

 

 

Being an editor requires more of a critical eye and amazing grasp of grammar and writing styles. Not everyone has this specific set of skills. Copywriting is not really a skill that everyone has, or can develop. Every other type of writing however, is a great opportunity for anyone who can construct a proper sentence in English.

Therefore, you should focus on ghost writing, content writing and paid blogging.

Ghost writing can help you earn a good amount of money, but the flip side to this is that no one will ever know who you are or appreciate the work you’ve done. In the Internet marketing world, lot of information marketers are constantly looking for someone who can help them write ebooks, instruction manuals and other types of documentation.

Getting credited (and perhaps a link back to your site) is a great reason to be writing for blogs and other similar online media. If you write for blogs, chances are you get a link back to your own site. By doing so you expose yourself and your name, while building credibility and repertoire. Writing on blogs or other places where you get credited for your writing is much better in terms of building a long-term career.

Another way of making money from freelance writing is paid to blog. Basically, you setup a blog and start writing from “paid blogging” opportunities. Advertisers want to get the word out about their products, and they are willing to pay bloggers to write about them on their blogs. Your blog’s popularity and reach determines how much you can charge.

The plus side to this is that technically you own the web content you have written, which means you can always make money using your growing blog with Google Adsense or even affiliate offers.
